When we assign a GL to a PR, it gives us an error "No direct postings can be made to G/L account in CoCode." This is because the GL account that we used is recon account for acct type to a vendor. We need to use the GL account. What can we do so that we can use the GL account?
Talk with your collegues from finance and do not open it yourself, there may be a valid reason why they have setup it this way, and you may have chosen the wrong account
Thanks for your quick response. We did that already and it still gives us the same error.
Maybe because in FS00, in control data tab, it was specified that the recon account is for account type "Vendor." Also, in the Create/bank/interest tab, the GL account belongs to "AP Reconciliation Account."
When we make PR for an asset, we use "A" as the account assignment and we input the asset number (which is connected to GL number) to the account assignment tab of the PR. Maybe there is also a way where when we enter an account assignment, it will ask for a Vendor number (where the GL number is connected to this vendor).
Yes, I understand that. What I mean is when we make a PR for asset, we put A in the account assignment category, and in the Account Assignment tab, instead of asking for a GL account, it now asks for an asset number, which is connected to the GL account for the asset.
Maybe it is also the same when we use the GL account for the vendor. Maybe there is also an account assignment category that we can use so that when we go to the Account Assignment tab, it will ask for a vendor number instead of the GL number, where the GL account is connected to the vendor
If there is none, is there a way where we can add to the list of Account Assignment Categories in OME9? So that when we use that account assignment category, it will ask for a vendor in the account assignment tab, and we put the vendor instead of the GL account.
Unfortunatly it is not clearer to me why you think you need to have a reconcilliation account in your account assginement tab.
Why should it ask for a vendor number in the account assignment? the vendor number will latest be in the PO header and applies to any item in that purchase order.

in case of asset the purchase is to the asset. like wise we purchase to inventory ( where the Material GL is derived from automaticl acc assignment ) or we purchase for consumption where the consumption GL is given. but how can you purchase to a vendor ?
